I rummaged through the fabric cabinets and pulled out this lovely plaid. I've been itching to create an apron since I started sewing. I love a high waisted apron, because I tend to splash things on my stomach when I cook. And because high waisted aprons are flattering.
I went to last.fm and chose to play Sufjan Stevens radio. Have I told you about last.fm? Type in your favorite artist and you can listen to their songs or a custom radio station with music similar to the artist. It's sometimes hit or miss, but today was nice. I listened to creativity inspiring music, such as Sufjan, Iron and Wine, Andrew Bird, The Innocence Mission, Beirut, Rufus Wainwright, etc. Now that I think about it, it was quite a bit of the music my beloved cousin Liz enjoys. {I miss you dear cousin!}
Music and crafts, I'm a happy gal.
I made a high waisted A-line apron. I think the colors are very Valentine's week appropriate. It has a generous fuchsia waistband with very long ties so that it ties in the front. Do you like it?
Happy Tuesday.

I miss you too, dear cousin. I can't wait until we can hang out again and trade notes on Balkan pop, indie darlings, etc. I love the apron you made! (and coffee cozy) Looks like the sewing bug has taken down another victim in the family lol.
P.S.- did you know that your girl Zoe Deschanel is engaged to Ben Gibbard?
Love it!
